Chapter 8

"Get up! Get up!"

I just look at Beau weakly as I rolled around the bed to ignore them. I've been completely ignoring them for a month now.

And it's been a month since my sister decided to leave me, I'm even surprised that I'm still breathing right now when all I wanted is to die.

I have no desire on living this life anymore.

"YLLEZABETH FREIRAIN!" she growled in frustration but still, I didn't budged.

"Frei, please, are you just going to waste your life like this? You're getting weak and also you're getting thinner." Mallory uttered, voiced laced with sadness. "We're so worried, we are still here for you Frei, we won't leave you." the cracked on her voice is the evident that she's crying right now.

"What's the point of living when they all left me, completely alone." I said, full of sadness and bitterness. "Might as well d—"

"You'll get up now, Yllezabeth Freirain or I'll make you." the coldness of Clementine's voice sent shivers to my spine that it made me looked at her immediately. "I've already give you a month to be alone and that's more than enough." she added, authoritatively.

"C-Clems." I uttered, weakly. "Ewan niyo nalang ako, please."

Clementine smirks. "You wish." she scoffed. "You're not completely alone, we are here, you stupid."

Ang sweet niya talaga, sobra.

I let out a deep breathe before sitting up from my bed. I ran my fingers through my hair as I glared at them. I shouldn't let them have access in my house.

"Ew. You stink." Okay, remind me again that Clementine is my friend.

Ang lakas ng pang-amoy, eh, ang layo niya sa akin.

"Takot naman pala kay Clems." ngisi ni Beau saka isa-isang inayos ang mga kalat sa loob ng kwarto ko. "Go, take a bath now while we tidy your room and then we'll talk."

Ayaw ko sanang sundin kaso ayaw ko naman mamatay sa kamay ni Clementine. Okay lang sana kung patay agad, pero psycho mag-isip ang isang 'yan, pinaglihi ata sa torture eh.

Wala akong nagawa kundi ang bumangon sa kama at naglakad papuntang banyo. "Mall, please get me some clothes to wear, please." wika ko bago isinarado ang pintuan ng banyo.

I smiled bitterly when I saw my reflection in the mirror, they were right, I'm getting thinner and the darkness under my eyes made me look like a panda. My hair is disheveled and so is my clothes.

I do really stink.

Sighing, I start walking towards the shower and start my business quickly. Even if I wanted to stay longer inside the bathroom, I can't because Clementine has no patient in waiting.

At tsaka para matapos na rin ang pag-uusap namin at umuwi na sila. Wala pa talaga akong gana makipag-communicate kahit kanino.

I even fired all my servants.

Andito na ako ngayon sa kama ko, bago narin ang bedsheet ko at maayos na ang loob ng kwarto ko, mukhang nag-hire din sila ng maglilinis sa bahay ko dahil may naririnig akong mga tao mula sa baba. Nakabukas kasi ang pintuan ng kwarto ko kaya naririnig ko.

"Frei." panimula ni Beau at tinabihan ako ng upo. "You're gonna die if you kee—"

I cut her off. "That's the plan all al— OUCH!" I groaned in pain when Clementine throw my not-so-thick book at me.

"You wanna die, huh." my eyes widen when she smiled sinisterly at me. "Beau and Mallory, hold her, I'll be the one to kill her."

Mabilis akong tumayo sa kama at lumayo sa tatlo kong kaibigan.
